I can confirm that the icarsoft mb v1.0 and the red 38 pin multiplexer adapter will read all the main systems on your car including reading trans codes and clearing them.Thanks for that info. I'm in Cardiff Wales. There are transmission specialists locally.
I can do the Conductor Plate and the Valve Body myself but getting inside the transmission mechanics that's much more difficult. I can do some electronics but really difficult chasing an intermittent fault with limited documentation.
I am considering the purchase of an ICARSOFT that you mentioned in another thread. The ODBII reader I have cannot read transmission codes.
Lets hope that the existing ATF fluid is the nice pleasant variety lol
I got mine for 50 quid used as new on ebay and then 35 for the adapter. It's money well spent because you can deal with most fault finding yourself forever more for the cost of a single maindealer code read or 2x indie code reads.
My car however is a bit of a crossover being a very early facelift W202 so to get into the ABS and ECU for example takes some trial and error until you find an option that will communicate- in other words when you select the vehicle in the menu you may not be able to access all systems if icarsoft think the car should have a different module from what it actually has.
